Junior Athletics Club Nights

Looking for a new sport over summer?
Fancy yourself as the next Dame Valerie or Hamish Kerr?
Want to improve your speed and stamina for your winter sport?
Or just want to have fun and be active?

All 2-17 year olds are invited to Pakuranga Athletic Club's Junior Track and Field club nights - every Wednesday in Terms 4 and 1. Beginners are welcome in all age groups. New families to the club are able to attend two club nights as free trials prior to registering for the season.

* Tiny Tots (2-4 year olds): 4.45 pm start. Focus is on helping children develop basic movement skills - walking, running, jumping, throwing and catching. These are the same skills used in athletics but taught through entertaining games and using fun equipment.

* 5 and 6 year olds: 4.45 pm start. Focus is on having fun whilst learning correct basic athletic techniques. Activities are presented as engaging team games and fun relays to help children learn running, jumping and throwing skills.

* 7-17 years: 5.45 pm start. Children have the opportunity to participate in races over a range of distances (60m - 1500m, relays, hurdles and racewalks), throwing events (shotput and discus) and jumping events (long jump and high jump).
